Who’s Chopping Onions?! - Malone’s Death Scene: The Untouchables (1987)

This week’s “Who’s chopping onions?!” clip came to me while I was writing my Sean Connery post earlier in the week.

It’s from The Untouchables (1987).


[SPOILER ALERT]


If you haven’t seen this film you probably shouldn’t watch the clip but you definitely should watch the movie!


This scene has always gotten to me but it’s even more emotional now Sean Connery is no longer with us.

The score by the brilliant Ennio Morricone who we also lost this year is superb and makes this scene even more tear-jerky.


One of the comments on the video says it all: “This is where real men cried 😭”


Skip to 2:46 for the start of the onion chopping. 🔪😭
